Hugo the wounded war hero who feels like a failure since his wife died trying to birth his child as his mother did trying to birth a son. He has vowed to never wed again so no other woman must die to give him his heir.

Lucinda is running from an abusive husband who is trading her to a friend for a weekend of debauchery. She finds refuge in Hugo's village as a widow. The romance between Hugo and Lucinda is sweet but heartbreaking as both are running or hiding from secrets.

Hugo, of course, was the perfect man and you really couldn't help but fall in love with him. Lucinda while quite was tender and easy to relate to. A well-written story with very likable characters
